Catching the Cherry Blossoms

Last week, Mark and I had a mini date. Nothing like a walk to the dry cleaners before a doctor's appointment for romance, right? But in reality, our walk was full of gratitude:

the first taste of the coming summer

time to slow down, even with a newborn

+

Hudson and his beautiful new life

+

Behr, for being so willing to go with the flow

+

my new 50mm camera lens

and catching the cherry blossoms

The cherry blossoms season is one of my favorite in DC. I had hopped they would peak early so I could enjoy them before my five day hospital stay. But a week of cold weather kept the blossoms at bay...just long enough until I was out of the hospital. The beautiful trees peaked over a week late and we were able to soak them in. We are now enjoying our full house and full hearts and overwhelming gratitude.
